History of Washington, the evergreen state, from early dawn to daylight; With portraits and biographies . ries. As for lier realty sales, to say nothing of the vast in-crease in values, they are simj)ly enormous. Washington mightwell be called the land of astonishment, for her cities spring upand flourish like Jonahs gourd, but, unlike that celebratedand oft-qnoted vegetable, do not wither with the sunrise.
